General :: Use Date With Touch To Create New File With Date Based Name?
Mar 12, 2010I am using CRON to create a new, blank file, every minute, in a specific location on my web server. After web searching, and reading man pages, I get the impression that the following command is supposed to work:touch /home/mydomain/var/folder/attachments/`date +%H%M`.txtThis should give me a new file with a file name that is the current hour and minute.However, when executed, the CRON mailer reports:touch /home/mydomain/var/folder/attachments/`date +/bin/sh: -c: line 0: unexpected EOF while looking for matching /bin/sh: -c: line 1: syntax error: unexpected end of fileSo, it looks like shell is seeing the plus (+) sign as an EOFObviously, nothing get created.What would be the easiest, single line command to create an empty file, at a given location, with a time based file name

Feb 15, 2010Can one perform an installation of CentOS 5 (5.4) so that the system is up-to-date at the time of the first boot (i.e. Anaconda will pull and install the 'latest' versions of the packages directly, and the user needn't run `yum update` | `yum upgrade` after the system has been installed)?
If this is doable at all, is it possible to accomplish without making use of a personally custom-crafted-and-hosted repository (i.e. can one of the official CentOS mirrors be used)?
Also, I'm not talking about creating an install DVD containing the latest versions of the packages, but rather, if the netinstall media can be used to perform this particular type of installation.

Aug 1, 2011As a photographer I'm constantly taking photos and storing them in folders. Now occasionally I'm using two cameras (either for different settings or an assistant is also taking photos) which means that for one event I can have differently named images.Both cameras have the same time set (which always helps in Windows) but in Ubuntu when trying to sort my folder by date taken I can't.The options I'm given are to sort them: Manually, by Name, by Size, by Type, by Modification date and by Emblem.Now none of those are helpful to me once I've done a few edits to the images.So please if anyone knows, how do you organise a folder with images taken on different cameras by Date Taken rather than Date Edited?

I put windows 7 now and as usual it erased grub. So to reinstall I put the fedora 12 installation CD on and followed some usual setup steps. When I got the command line I issued the command "grub-install /dev/sda" (sda not hda because It showed bunch of sda, sda1..) but surprisingly it said grub command not found.

View 4 Replies View RelatedUbuntu Installation :: Can't Upgrade From 9.04 / My System Is 'up To Date'
Feb 12, 2010I run three Ubuntu machines - work, home, and a laptop. All were on 9.04, and I was able over the past week to painlessly upgrade the first two to 9.10.Today I fired up the laptop for the first time in a while and saw that it hadn't had the upgrade yet, so went to the upgrade manager. It had a bunch of package upgrades it wanted to do, so I let it. But there was no option to go to 9.10, not even after catching it up on updates. It just says the system is up to date. Clicking "check" again just gives the same message. It doesn't seem to know that there's a koala out there.
Settings on the update manager say to accept normal releases, so it's not an LTS thing. Yes, it's on 9.04 now according to /etc/apt/sources.list. Network connectivity is good.What might I be missing that I ought to look for?

View 1 Replies View RelatedCentOS 5 :: Up-to-Date Network Installation With Broadcom Wireless Possible?
Feb 15, 2010I must be able to perform customized (non distribution-default) (re)installations of Linux fairly often. As such, I have been looking for a distribution which would allow me to automate the process. CentOS's usage of the Anaconda installer permitting the use of kickstart files, coupled with its stability, maturity, etc. seems to be what I have been looking for. I would like to be able to use the netinstall media in order to perform up-to-date kickstart installations (i.e. grab the 'latest' updates targeting CentOS 5, rather than installing the 5.4 versions and upgrading the system after the first boot).
The wiki seems to provide instructions on creating up-to-date media. However; this is less than ideal, because it would mean burning new media every time I need to (re)install. I realize that finding out if this is possible or not is a simple matter of grabbing the netinstall ISO, burning it and seeing if it supports a direct up-to-date install (or not). However, this is where I run into another problem. The machine in question uses a broadcom wireless card and, as such, would have to make use of it during the installation. I can get the card to work properly on an installed system via the bcm43xx kernel module + 3rd party firmware (extracted to /lib/firmware/ via bcm43xx-fwcutter).
I do not know if it is possible to modify the netinstall ISO so as to load this module (and the modules it depends on) automatically -and- somehow add the necessary files to /lib/firmware/. To summarize (in hopes of clarifying if the long version is confusing) :
1. Can the netinstall media be used to directly install an up-dated system?
2. Can the netinstall media be reworked in order to automatically load the bcm43xx module and can the firmware files be added to the /lib/firmware/ directory of the.. system booted from the media?

View 10 Replies View RelatedUbuntu Multimedia :: Digikam - Renaming On Import - "Create Date" Versus "File Modification Date"
Jan 24, 2011I just switched from a basic digital camera to a more advanced one that stores both Jpeg and Raw (.Nef - it's a Nikon) files for me.When importing files in Digikam, I rename the files so that they start with Date and Time. Example: 20110121-223748.JPG for a photo taken on Jan 21st 2011 at 22:37:48.I was a bit surprised when importing both the JPEG and the Raw version of the same photo, that the filename is different by a few seconds (no constant offset, sometimes they are the same):
20110121-223748.JPG
20110121-223750.NEF
I did some "research" by looking at the exif data of both files (using "exiftool 20110121-223748.JPG" from the command line). Here is what I got back
(amongst other data):20110121-223748.JPG
File Modification Date/Time : 2011:01:21 22:37:48+01:00
Modify Date : 2011:01:21 22:37:48
Date/Time Original : 2011:01:21 22:37:48
[code]....
So it seems that Digikam is using the "File Modification Date/Time" (different in the Jpeg's and Raw's of my camera) rather than the "Create Date" (the same for both Jpeg and Raw). (The few seconds difference in "File Modification Date/Time" between the two versions of the same photo is probably due to the time that my camera needs to write away the data on the SD memory card. I guess.) Is there a way to have Digikam use the Create Date? (Or the Date/Time Original?)
PS: I'm on Ubuntu 10.04LTS, using DigiKam 1.2.0
Ubuntu Installation :: Computer Date/Time Change - 9.10 Live ISO
Apr 6, 2010I am using Grub4Dos to boot Ubuntu 9.10 Desktop Live CD. In the menu.lst i made the following changes.
Quote:
title Ubuntu LiveCD 9.10
find --set-root /ubuntu-9.10-desktop-i386.iso
map /ubuntu-9.10-desktop-i386.iso (0xff)
map --hook
root (0xff)
[Code]....
The code runs fine and Ubuntu loads also from the ISO stored in the C: drive of my system.
The problem is when Ubuntu loads it changes my clock time. I have set the timezone to Indian Standard Time. Since it is live CD it should not make any changes in the system however, it does change the Data/Time of my system.
Ubuntu Installation :: Install With Up To Date Packages In Single Pass
Apr 23, 2010is there a way to install Ubuntu with up-to-date versions of all packages right away? To clarify: With the normal LiveCDs, in order to install an up-to-date Ubuntu Lucid, I have to download a 700 MB LiveCD, install Ubuntu, and then use the Update Manager (or apt-get) to upgrade all outdates packages, which by now should be another about 300 MB. Old versions of SUSE Linux had the option of downloading an ~40MB installer ISO which did not contain any packages itself, but would download and install the most recent versions of all necessary packages.
Is there such a facility for Ubuntu as well? Or a way of using an outdated Ubuntu LiveCD (e.g. Lucid Beta 1) to still install an up-to-date system in a single pass? I am *not* talking about netboot images such as netboot.me or boot.kernel.org, which AFAIK will download the full normal Ubuntu ISO during boot, so that I would still have to upgrade the system afterwards.
